Just because people aren't jumping around screaming the n word dissent mean they aren't racist

Yet you are missing my point it is not "racist", that term does not fit what she did. I'm not saying that what she did was right but it's not racism.
I have taken several courses including my Seminar (final class to graduate) on race and racism, 2 with a focus on race and racism in the United States. Putting on a headdress and making a comment about the culture it comes from is not racist.
If you want to ignore my knowledge on the subject then by all means be my guest, however, I do know that there are too many people walking around screaming racism without knowing the definition of the term. If you want to be offended that's fine but it is not racism.
